These are remarkable numbers. It is very hard to get this degree of agreement about anything. By way of comparison, 79 percent of adults believe the earth revolves around the sun; 18 percent say it is the other way around.

I wouldn't necessarily draw specific policy proposals from these numbers, but it's interesting how rarely the opinions of most Americans penetrate the media bubble, even in an election year.

For purposes of this post, we're talking about public opinion, not the merits of any particular case. I would agree in general that most folks don't foresee how state regulation can sometimes combine the worst of capitalism and the worst of socialism. The idea that it always does so is mere dogma, however.

Public opinion also supports more car crashes at Nascar Races. It really doesn't tell us much about the sensibility of the opinion held.

The media is almost completely lacking in its analysis of what regulation has brought us.

Yes, corporates spout out propaganda for regulation that favors incumbents, but despite some huge trials going on there is very little out there on what mob run regulators like the Illinois Healthcare Facilities have brought us.
